Setting a Comprehensive Bow-Tie Framework for Disaster Risk Analysis of Mine Tailings Storage Facilities. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Disasters caused by tailings storage facilities (TSFs) have highlighted the complexity of safely managing mine tailings and the extension of consequences over time and throughout the tailings runoff. Investigations commissioned by mining companies following major failures in Mariana and Brumadinho, Brazil, primarily focused on immediate ...

Experimental Investigation of Wave Propagation and Overtopping over Seawalls on a Reef Flat
A series of physical model tests were performed to investigate the wave propagation, pressure, and wave overtopping processes for vertical and sloped seawalls on the reef flat.

Remote Sensing of Wave Overtopping on Dynamic Coastal Structures
The development of coastal regions combined with rising sea levels is leading to an increasing risk of coastal flooding caused by wave overtopping of natural beaches and engineered coastal structures.

WAVE OVERTOPPING SIMULATOR TESTS IN VIET NAM [PDF]
Sea dikes in Viet Nam have been built up during a long history. Every year, about 4 to 6 storms attack the coast and cause severe damages of the sea dikes. Till now, little is known about strength and stability of the inner slope covered with grass under impacts of wave overtopping during storm surges.

Characterization of Overtopping Waves on Sea Dikes with Gentle and Shallow Foreshores
Due to ongoing climate change, overtopping risk is increasing. In order to have effective countermeasures, it is useful to understand overtopping processes in details.

Wave overtopping is a critical parameter in the design of coastal defense structures. Nowadays, several empirical formulations based on small-scale experiments are available in the literature to predict the mean overtopping discharge at dikes on shallow ...

Experimental measurement of focused wave group and solitary wave overtopping [PDF]
Prediction of individual wave overtopping events is important in assessing danger to life and property, but data are sparse and hydrodynamic understanding is lacking.
